Can I disable one of my keyless fobs?

[Max Freelander]

It seems one is missing. I called the dealership, they quoted $400 for to "flash," so that the missing fob can no longer unlock or operate the vehicle.

Isn't there a DIY way to do this? Maybe through the dashboard system, connect and disable one of fobs?

For $400, I'd expect new fobs and maybe a tuneup! 2016 Tacoma.

Thanks

Pull the battery in the fob?

Ah! I don't have have it. Appears it's lost or stolen. I'd like to disable that fob, and not the remaining one!

I'm not too sure then. Toyota locks up their ECUs so any changes are damn near impossible.

Manual for the 2017 key fob says you can hold the open button down while pushing the other button or something like that look it up in the owner's manual

Don't people read these posts before responding.... Crackheads he said he lost the fob, ya caint take the battery out or disable the fob if you don't have it via lost or stolen. Yes you could disable the fob if you had it to prevent the fob from transmitting and may I add this is good if your around a bunch of geek minded crooks that are scanning your fob frequency to allow them to steal your taco later while your looking for the other fob lol

At least us crackheads can use punctuation.
